PHP 4.0 Bug #7078: esyscmd() in configure.in doesn't get evaluated

From: alex@unixdot.com Operating system: OpenBSD 2.7 PHP version: 4.0.2 PHP Bug Type: *Install and Config Bug description: esyscmd() in configure.in doesn't get evaluated When I use PHP 4.0.2 or the PHP CVS development version and try to create a new configure script using ./buildconf, configure.in doesn't get parsed correctly. esyscmd(./scripts/config-stubs sapi) esyscmd(./scripts/config-stubs ext) both these commands are put literally into the configure script. running ./configure thereafter fails. I double checked the version numbers of the required tools such as automake and they meet the set requirements. when I run manually the command ./scripts/config-stubs sapi and ./scripts/config-stubs ext and paste the output in the place of the esyscmd() in configure.in, ./buildconf generates a correct configure and ./configure configures PHP properly. I hope I have provided you with enough information, but please don't hesitate if more is required (-: -- Edit Bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=7078&edit=1
